On April 9th, under the guidance of Tony Liu, 18 volunteers came together at the Learning School House to package and organize books that were collected during the Book Drive. In less than two hours, our volunteers not only sorted over 200 books to donate to the children in Memorial Hermann Texas Medical Center, but also created personal cards to gift to the children.
As trivial as it may seem to come together and pack books, AYLUS Pearland has done more than just provide books to Memorial Hermann’s children. In addition to providing the hospitalized with entertainment, AYLUS Pearland also was able to bring them joy and company by coming together as an Asian community and working together in this book drive.
We would like to thank the volunteers for taking time out of their days to help us sort the books. Furthermore, we would like to give special thanks to Helen Wang and Donna Liu who created a beautiful poster for our collaborative project. And finally, we would like to thank the parents/guardians who we, without their support, would not have been able to bring happiness to the hospitalized children.
The donators were: Tony Liu, Kevin Chen, Kathryn Guan, Katherine Zhong, Janie Chen, Vincent Yang, Julie Liu, Helen Wang, Ashley Zhuang, Kathryn Zhuang, William Li, and Cindy Li, Wilbert Liu.
The volunteers were: Tony Liu, Kevin Chen, Jason Jiang, Donna Liu, Xinyi Zhu, Evelyn Cai, Kevin Bai, Wilbert Liu, David Wang, Hans Wang, Vincent Yang, Helen Wang, Kathryn Guan, Benjamin Liang, Kate Liu, Owen Cai, Catherine Bai, and Geoffrey Liu.
